CONTENTS
DESCRIPTION
This book begins with an overview of the cocept of biodiversity dynamics, explaining why turnover needs to be addressed in terms of all scales of time and space and why it is so important to look at speciation and extinction together, as interdependent processes. This book is divided into two parts, the first exploring turnover at the species level and the second investigating larger-scale community and ecosystem turnover. This book is very useful for ecologists, paleontologists, and anyone interested in biodiversity preservation.
